Why would someone need research to make a assertion? All of us see things in our day to day lives that we collate into conclusions which we then assert to others. As for evidence, there's some in this very thread if you look closely. As for you listening to audiobooks all the time and knowing how to spell and write, we only have your self-reporting on both scores and even if so, you don't prove the rule. How exactly did you learn how to spell and write proper grammar? From listening to audiobooks? That must have taught you the difference between two, to and too. Not to mention break and brake and flair and flare.
